Former head of recruitment at Arsenal for a couple of years, was around 2017-2019 when they recruited....shit. He was previously a scout at BVB though so it's not all bad but this just feels like Klopp getting too much control. Some of our best signings in the Klopp era are players that Edwards and our scouts had to push hard for.
Just a rumour at this stage. Was very good at Dortmund but ...

Would like the guy from Red Bull personally

I mean, he did apparently unearth Lewandowski, Aubameyang, Kagawa, Ousmane Dembele and Hummels.

But, his performance at Arsenal doesn't really bode well

No we don't.
Using the current model we can't stay with FSG. We can't.

They need to invest without having to sell.

Bellingham is but one player. We need 3-4 top players at a minimum and start spending big on youth.

They start doing that then ok. But ...

Another staff member gone. Up and left for Rangers.

Would love to know what's going on at our club as this is far from normal.

Van Dijk on FSG selling up:

“Whoever comes in to fill in those roles, they will do very well. I am aware of everything that is happening. Hopefully, everything will be sorted and clarified when I am back.”

Last last sentence is interesting

@Freakzilla now that I've watched some more of Bellingham during this WC I think I can safely say he's the perfect midfielder for us on and off the pitch. I hope we don't fuck this up haha.

Been saying it for over a year now mate. Just take my word from now on about player evaluations :tearsofjoy:

If we can somehow sign Bellingham & Rice for next season I think we win the title.

I'm not sure about Rice but Bellingham definitely wants to join us and play under Klopp. Guess a lot will depend on what the hell happens with our ownership but I think Bellingham will happen as long as we're there abouts with negotiations.
